Good day
Just a quick note to tell you that I started a new Etsy shop. I just love to crochet and my mother loves to knit. She just had her birthday on Saturday and turned 77.

Mom and Liam singing Happy Birthday

She was over for the weekend and has been knitting baby hats and I thought I would add a little to them and make some crochet flowers. We all know how much I love flowers.(And speaking of flowers...the Funky Flowers are almost done. I have 4 to release and the last 2 are being stitched) :)))yeah!!!)
Back to the Etsy Etsyshop.......I added the hats that she hand knitted with the flowers that I crocheted and turned into pins so you can use them either on the hat or on something else.
We only have 6 up at the moment but working on more.
So check it out if you have a chance and I am working on the background of a Funky Flower over one.
talk again soon

I will keep this one for all By The Bay things but my other shop will be for wool, and other things. My mom has been knitting things for the new shop and I am crocheting things and felting them. Busy busy busy!!!

Bailey cant wait for Christmas. She is already waiting under the Charlie Brown tree!!

Good morning,
I am still working on the newsletter with the free Christmas design for an ornament and also directions for finishing a Stitch An Inche as a tiny 1 1/2 inch ornament made with felt or wool. So it will be worth the extra wait, I hope :) But I finished my wool feather tree and I am sharing a photo with you. It measures 12 inches and is sitting in a red base. I plan on giving classes on these at Yankee Cross Stitch and I will post more info as soon as I pick a date. Should be fun!!
Well I am off to stitch, finish ornaments, and take pictures, talk to you later.
